One of my favourite restaurants in Doha is a Japanese fusion restaurant offering an eclectic choice of the world's best cuisines, taking one's tastebuds on a delivious trip of a satisfying feast! The interior is beautiful. It is all NYC industrial loft style with warm undertones and exposed brick walls; powdered coated distressed black steel frames, softened with beautiful lantern style light fittings. What I really love about the restaurant, is the tiled floor suprise in the cloakrooms. It is stunning, the Teen and I always take a few spins of happiness in this very small space whenever we lunch here.

After hooking the fabulous #rusticlacesquare blanket that is still sweeping through IG like a storm (see all the hashtagsby various posters on IG), my eye was drawn to another similar, oversized lacy square design and I womdered whther that would be another great pattern to enjoy.

I noticed the floor, I noticed the pattern, I gave it a go, I failed. Urghh!!! I really struggled to get the gauge right, in creasing and decresing stitches, started over a few different times and concluded that it simply was not working. As rerwarding as the first pattern was, as frustrating this one turned out to be. Idea: shelved!!

Trivia:

Susannamed the unnamed square #rusticlacesquare after my own IG account, rawrustic(I wish I could ditch the "pigtails" moniker you see, hence a differet account name on IG)

Just look at this! Mirrored wall, tiled floor, simply gorgeous.

I enjoyed playing with my failure on a photo app though!
